[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 1488631, member: 16269"]Hallelujah!!! You'll probably never see this post because many, many members here had explained to you exactly what it is you've just discovered like it's some kind of divine revelation which means you obviously start a thread and don't go back to it to read the responses. You state you've been going to auctions for [I]twelve years? [/I]Then why is all this a surprise to you? I've been going to auction for the better part of fifty years and this is exactly what happens at each and every auction. It doesn't matter what the item is worth, because it's what the highest bidder pays for it that matters. If they want something then they have to be the highest bidder. They don't stop bidding because it's only worth "X" amount of dollars, they bid until they get it whatever their reasoning. They're not being greedy, they just want to own it.
